Question

Approximately what is the smallest detail observable with a microscope that uses ultraviolet light of frequency 1.72 x 1015 hz? provide the solution: __________ x 10-7 m

Answer 1

The solution is λ=2.5×10^-7 m

Frequency, speed of light, and wavelength are related by the formula

c = fλ ⇒ λ =c/f

Where c = speed of light ,f = frequency, λ= wavelength

Plug in the value of c = 3 × 10^8 m/s and f = 1.2 × 10^15 Hz in the above equation and solve for the value of λ

λ = 3 × 10^8 ms^-1/1.2 × 10^15 Hz

λ=2.5×10^-7 m

The number of waves that pass a fixed point in unit time; also, the number of cycles or vibrations undergone during one unit of time by a body in periodic motion.
